Cyborg Cinderella
submitted by KathyD on June 14, 2014, 7:46am
Enjoyable twist on the Cinderella story. Cinder is a cyborg mechanic who lives with her stepmother and two stepsisters in future sort-of China after World War IV. She meets the prince when he sneaks out to bring his favorite childhood android in for repair. There's a plague raging through the country, and evil queen from the moon afraid of mirrors who is interested in dealing with the prince for a cure. Even though you know some things that will happen because it's based on the traditional story, it is a fun and interesting story.
First of four in a series (last one coming out in 2015).
